Study Evaluates Machine Learning Models for Sepsis and Stroke Detection Using EMS Data
By
J. Brent Myers
Summary
This study evaluates the performance of hospital-based machine learning models when applied to Emergency Medical Services (EMS) data for early detection of sepsis and stroke in adult emergency department patients. The retrospective analysis covers July 2021 to June 2024, using linked EMS and ED records with feature mapping of vital signs, chief complaints, and EMS impressions, using ED physician diagnosis as the reference standard.
